Engine CZBA

Symptoms:
- Rough idling or stalling, especially at low speeds
- Loss of power or hesitation during acceleration
- Check Engine Light (CEL) illumination
- Increased fuel consumption or irregular fuel usage
- Occasional misfires or uneven running

Diagnosis:
- Inspect the ignition coils and spark plugs for wear or damage, as these are common failure points.
- Check for vacuum leaks around intake manifold and hoses, which can cause rough idling.
- Use a diagnostic scanner to read fault codes related to fuel injection, ignition, or emissions.
- Examine the natural gas injection system (TGI system) for leaks or faulty injectors.
- Verify the condition of the EGR valve and clean if clogged, as it can affect combustion quality.
- Test the fuel pressure and regulator to ensure proper fuel delivery.

Fixes:
- Replace worn or faulty spark plugs and ignition coils to restore smooth combustion.
- Repair or replace damaged vacuum hoses to eliminate air leaks.
- Clean or replace the EGR valve to maintain proper exhaust gas recirculation.
- Service the TGI natural gas injection system, including injector cleaning or replacement if necessary.
- Update engine control software if available, as manufacturers sometimes release improvements for fuel management.
- Perform routine maintenance such as air filter replacement and fuel system cleaning to optimize performance.

Prevention:
- Follow the manufacturer’s recommended service intervals for spark plugs, filters, and ignition components.
- Use quality fuel and ensure the natural gas system is regularly inspected for leaks and proper operation.
- Avoid prolonged idling and aggressive driving to reduce stress on the engine and fuel system.
- Keep the engine bay clean to prevent dirt and debris from affecting sensors and components.
- Regularly scan the vehicle’s ECU for fault codes to catch issues early before they cause major damage.
